Wedding fish and chip van for your wedding in Ninfield
The van parks near the marquee, barn or venue, and guests wander out to the hatch. It becomes a lovely moment in the evening. Whether it is vow renewal parties and wedding after-parties, we can cook mushy peas, haddock and chips and cod and chips.
Rural weddings around Ninfield have a magic of their own, and fish and chips at dusk adds to it. Plan a firm back-up spot if the field is wet. We serve from the hatch, so it is hot and generous, and the queue keeps moving.

About the food
Sausage and chips
A sausage and chips is the chip-shop classic for younger guests and fish-dodgers, especially with curry sauce.
Cod and chips
For many people, cod and chips is the definitive version. Fried to order in the van, it goes out hot and crisp.

For event organisers in Ninfield
Organising a club, school or community event in Ninfield? A fish and chip van draws people in and almost everyone likes it. Give us the details and we’ll suggest how it could work.

Step by step
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. Golden-hour photos in Ninfield at midsummer come around 9:15pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:45pm, and in late September about 7:00pm.
- Get in touch with the basics: when, where and roughly how many.
- A photo of the parking spot helps us check the van will fit.
- Closer to the day, we confirm the arrival time and serving time.
- We park, open the hatch and start frying for your guests.
- Last portion served, we tidy up and head off.
How to prepare
- Have a level parking spot ready
- Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
- Confirm the van is allowed on site

Planning help
Planning for dietary needs
A little planning makes sure everyone is looked after. Here’s how:
- Don’t forget your suppliers
- Plan something for guests we cannot cater for
- Ensure we have someone to call on the day
- Flag coeliac guests early
If speeches or dances run over, we simply start a little later, so the food is still fresh.
Ask your band or DJ to tell guests the van is open.
A chip van compared with other options
Some venue evening menus are light. A chip van makes sure nobody goes home hungry. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, menu, travel, any minimum and VAT. We set ours out clearly.

Questions from Ninfield
How far is Ninfield from London?
About 48 miles from central London, and well within our area.
Can the van go to venues in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We’ll work to whatever the site needs.
Is there a non-fish option?
We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Tell us about other diets and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.
What if the weather’s bad?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes. The fryers are in the van, so food is cooked there and then, not cooked earlier and kept warm.
How many evening guests should we cater for?
Normally most, not all. We’ll talk it through when we quote.
Can you park near the barn?
Your venue decides, but near the reception works best. A picture of the area helps.
Can the van come to Ninfield?
We do. Ninfield is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
